COACH’S COMMENTS

“… Having the first game ever for LCHS Boys Soccer at our field was a great experience. The crowd was extremely supportive and much larger than I imagined.”

“…The boys came out with intensity and carried themselves well through a very physical match. Paintsville was well organized and very threatening. The game did not feel like a 5-2 win. It seemed much closer than the score let on. Overall, we played well but we still have some things to clean up if we want to continue winning.”
